the wondering heart

by Gideon Mutai

The wondering heart
The image, the thought massive, makes fear palpate,
A place, colourful full of crayons, creativity creeps in,
Stars invisible, felt in the heart beneath a pallid,
Smile, off it wears, bring a taste of couture,
Power exuded making one covetous.

The cloud, the fog clears bring forth clear view,
A telescope, watching nature through to horizon,
Near yet far, joy visible, a place desired,
A sight to behold, wondering thoughts,
Been a while seems never occurred.

A picnic, a steak waiting,
Lamps, dinner overlooking the calm swamp/savanna,
The lawn, the soft grass scented flowers blooming,
Cheerful laughter, a peaceful place,
Croaking frogs’ crickets cricking.

That wine, mmhh the hot coffee,
The blazing bonfire, that throw, that companion,
Poetry lyrics, spoken words, blooming eyes,
Guitarist, the country music, these moments,
Never want to forget…….

Dear Poeter, In the collection of memories that time gives, this life experiences alternating pleasures and pains for the rest of its life. From enjoying snowy nights to standing by the window to playing in the rain, life feels like an art. The heart that understands the aesthetics of this life, which is given only once, enjoys living a life of enjoyment for the rest of its life. All The Best My Dear Friend; Write More Congratulations
